[QUOTE="Corywalker, post: 116756"] My view on body armor (only been playing rugby for 2 years) is that if you want to wear it, go ahead. There are many reaons why you would and wouldn't wear it. Why you would: - As stated before, for brusing or sore shoulders/chest muscles - Maybe it makes you feel 'safer' as a state of mind (when i wear a scrum cap, i seem to use my head a lot more physically - Indimidation, maybe your small in size, so you can wear the pads to make you look 'larger' Why you wouldn't: - People might, possibly, insult/make fun of you for wearing pads, thus making you a 'wimp' - Decreased movement of your upper body and arms Just my views.
